WHERE TO LIVE...

[Mad Mike]

I'll be moving to Colo. in the near future, and I would like to know some of the better places to live. I've read about a small place called Woodland park,
seems a nice area map wise, but something about some guy running around with a UZI named Suzi or some such thing...anyway, I would like to find an area wooded, large lot, near a city or such, any ideas anyone??? Also, what are the bad area that i should avoid??? Thanks. 8)

Avoid the City and County of Denver and maybe put Boulder way down on the list. Everywhere else is pretty decent.

Suzi??? :shock: :? What a silly name. Wonder if he's a neighbor? :roll: If you're a Republican, you'd like it here... 90% Republican county here and the nearest large city/county is the largest Republican DOMINATED county in the state. :twisted: LOTS of trees, nice climate year round, very nice summer area. Karl.

i'd say anywhere round the greater colo springs area... very nice.... nicest place i've been.... and i've been to lotsa places.


I live in a part of colorado springs called briargate.... Moving out the the edge of colo springs onto a 2.5 acre lot sooner than later though... still within colo springs but barley, and way closer to Dragon mans and Pikes Peak Gun Clun... or issak walton league or somthin like that....

Basically colorado springs is a city, with the feel of a small town, decent traffic, and all the things you can do in a big city without the liberal limitations.... Definatly stay clear of Denver....

Hey Karl, did you know that the County in which you preside had more than 30% of it's residents with warrants for their arrest?? (very recent past) Most are minor, but because of the small Teller S.O., they don't have the resources to go after every body. Woodland Park was built up from a hole in the wall by delinquent wanted felons that were trying to avoid Colorado Springs, Cripple Creek and any other major town and used it as a hide out.

Obviously it is now a beatiful bedroom town, but the warrant rate is still waaay up there.

Even though I don't live there, I'm very in-touch with that town. I used to arrest people there or give them tickets.

[KarlPMann]

Yeah, the warrant rate was high, but not since about '91. Once gambling came here, the population changed overnight. Prior to that, the SO was a few man department and the jail was over 100 years old. :shock: Hey... why you think I wanted to be a bondsman? :twisted: Karl.

Nope, got stuck here in the Springs writing a bond. But it was good I stayed, wrote two $5K's and then another $10K today. Desperately needed money after a slow X-Mas season. :roll: Karl.

[Delphi]

bonds huh? what is it exactly you do?
